The welcome lobby is located on the ground floor and is accessible via the driveway facing the KLCC Park. Guests checking-in will be assisted to take the elevator to level 6B where the reception lobby is located.

Checking-in was a breeze. After signing the guest registration form, my room key cards were immediately issued and I was assisted by one of the staff to my room. I was also told that my bags were already sent to my room by the concierge.

While taking the elevator to the floor where my room is located, the front desk staff was orienting me about the hotel facilities that I can enjoy during my stay and pointing to me the floor where they are located. I was also told about the schedule of the buffet breakfast and the direction of how to get to the restaurant from my room.

Four Seasons Hotel Kuala Lumpur opened in July 2018 making it one of the newest hotels in Kuala Lumpur. I have been waiting for this property to open, and fortunately, my recent visit to Kuala Lumpur was scheduled only two weeks after the hotel opened.

I stayed in a Park View Junior Suite which is the lead-in suite category of Four Seasons Hotel Kuala Lumpur. It features a separate bedroom, a separate living area, and a full marble bathroom. The suite is also located in one of the corners of the building facing the KLCC park and fountain.

I love staying in newly opened hotels because I feel that I have become part of its growth.
